Republicans have never really grasped the concept of stealing. It was always just something they did.

You do know that most of the founding members if the Republican party were black, right? Know your history folks, otherwise you’ll look like heavenisclownshoes over here.

Republicans are also still the "big business" party, which I'm equating with "wealthy" if that wasn't obvious.

TLDR: You're not wrong about Republican origins however conservative-leaning "big business" <--> wealth <--> exploitation of labor/resources etc.

You're not wrong about their anti-slavery history/Reconstruction era, but OP isn't either. OP is apparently referring to the pro big business bent of the Republican party, which long ago (including then) led the party to favor expansion of the government.

Despite having a small government platform today, modern Republicans are known as the party of the wealthy now, and recent studies suggest the biggest slaveowners remained wealthy after the war. My educated guess is that many of these plantation dynasty people since switched parties (to Republican), and we know Democrats do well among descendants of slaves. You're both right; OP makes a better point imo. 😥

even if that were true, which I greatly doubt, what does it have to do with my meme, Chuckles?

Until the libs are done tearing down history, doubt all you want, you can read it in any unbiased history; if there are any history books left when you’re done burning them. Which means you are saying “blacks steal” which is incredibly racist. THAT’S what it has to do with your meme. Not knowing your history can really make you look foolish which is why tearing down statues and burning books isn’t a very good idea, no matter what you believe.
